Still Waiting...

Well... Zach and I did not get the case files last week like we were told.  There is a slight chance that we will get the files tomorrow before we leave for vacation, but I am definitely not getting my hopes up.  If not, I am hoping that we will be able to pick them up when we get back from the Ozarks.  We are just continuing to place everything in God's hands because we definitely have NO control over anything in this process!

Thank you for every one's prayers and please keep praying for Natalia and Robert... for God to be preparing their hearts for this transition if it is his will!

ACTUAL ADOPTION NEWS!!!

I could write an entire book on these past 2 months since my last post, but it is pointless to dwell on the details... plus, I do not even know where to start to put everything into words.  What is important to announce is that through God's amazing grace Zach and I were chosen for 2 kids!  We cannot give any details at this time except that their names are Natalia (5 years old) and Robert (3 years old).  At this point it is not 100% that everything will go through and there are still steps that have to be taken in order to finalize everything.  The next step is for Zach and I to meet with CPS sometime next week.  Please pray for Natalia and Robert... to be preparing their hearts for this huge transition if it is God's will for us to be a family.  We also ask that you pray for guidance, patience and peace for Zach and I as we continue this journey.

Thank you for every single prayer and all of the support thus far; hopefully we will have more news to announce soon!
